KYON Patellar Groove Replacement (PGR) Workshop

17 juin 2023 | 08:00-18:00 | 8005 Zürich, Suisse

Patellar Groove Replacement (PGR) provides a novel solution to the challenge of treating severe canine patellofemoral degenerative joint disease.

While conventional treatments, e.g. TTT, remain effective for patients with grade 1 – 2 patella luxation, more complex scenarios, combining multiple deformities and severe trochlear malformation, present a considerable challenge to surgeons and too often result in a less than satisfactory clinical outcome.

The execution of the PGR surgical technique is straightforward. However, successful outcomes require surgeons’ comprehensively evaluate the hind limb and account for all relevant factors.

This PGR Workshop is offered as Dry Lab workshop. The workshop includes lectures on background, planning, surgical technique, clinical experience, and complications, and includes practicing the PGR procedure on a bone model.

Surgeons will be enrolled automatically to the accompanying online course when purchasing the workshop (without additional fee for the online course). We recommend taking the course one month before attending the workshop.
